< Hosea 4 >
1 Hear the word of Yahweh, you people of Israel. Yahweh has a lawsuit against the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truthfulness or covenantal faithfulness, no knowledge of God in the land.
Denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh, dakayo a tattao ti Israel. Addaan ti pammabasol ni Yahweh kadagiti agnanaed iti daga, gapu ta awanen ti napudno kadakayo, ken awanen ti napudno iti tulag, awanen ti pannakaammoyo iti Dios iti daga.
2 There is cursing, lying, killing, stealing and adultery. The people have broken all bounds, and bloodshed comes after bloodshed.
Adda ti panangilunod, panagulbod, pammapatay, panagtakaw, ken pannakikamalala. Sinalungasing dagiti tattao dagiti amin a linteg, ket agsasaruno ti pannakaiparukpok ti dara.
3 So the land is drying up, and everyone living in it is wasting away; the beasts in the fields and the birds in the sky, even the fish in the sea, are being taken away.
Isu nga agmagmaga ti daga, ket kumapkapuy dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti daytoy: dagiti narungsot nga ayup iti tay-ak ken dagiti billit iti tangatang; uray pay dagiti ikan iti baybay ket napukawdan.
4 But do not allow anyone to bring a lawsuit; do not let anyone accuse anyone else. For it is you, the priests, whom I am accusing.
Ngem saanmo a palubosan ti siasinoman a mangyeg iti darum; saanmo a palubosan a pabasolen ti maysa a tao ti siasinoman. Gapu ta dakayo a papadi ti pabpabasolek.
5 You priests will stumble during the day; the prophets will also stumble with you by night, and I will destroy your mother.
Maitibkolkayonto a papadi iti aldaw; Maitibkolkto met dagiti profeta a kaduayo iti rabii, ket dadaelekto ti inayo.
6 My people are being destroyed because of the lack of knowledge. Because you priests have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as priests to me. Because you have forgotten my law, although I am your God, I also will forget your children.
Madaddadael dagiti tattaok gapu iti kinakurang iti pannakaammo. Gapu ta linaksidyo a papadi ti pannakaammo, laksidendakayonto met a kas papadi kaniak. Gapu ta linipatyo ti lintegko, uray no siak ti Diosyo, lipatekto met dagiti annakyo.
7 The more the priests multiplied, the more they sinned against me. They exchanged their honor for shame.
No kasano ti panagadu dagiti papadi, ad-adda met ti panagbasolda kaniak. Pagbalinekto a pakaibabainan dagiti dayawda.
8 They feed on the sin of my people; they are greedy for more of their wickedness.
Agtaraonda iti basol dagiti tattaok; naagumda kadagiti kinadangkesda.
9 It will be the same for the people as for the priests: I will punish them all for their practices; I will repay them for their deeds.
Kastanto met laeng kadagiti tattao a kas kadagiti papadi: dusaekto ida amin gapu kadagiti aramidda; pagsagabaekto ida gapu kadagiti aramidda.
10 They will eat but not have enough; they will commit prostitution but not increase, because they have gone far away from Yahweh.
Mangandanto ngem saanda a mapnek; agbalangkantisdanto ngem saanda nga umado, gapu ta tinalikkudan ken pinanawandak, siak a ni Yahweh.
11 They love sexual promiscuity, wine, and new wine, which have taken away their understanding.
Ti kinaderrep, arak ken ti baro nga arak ti nangpukaw ti pannakaawatda.
12 My people consult their wooden idols, and their walking sticks give them prophecies. For a mind of promiscuity has misled them, and they have acted as prostitutes instead of being faithful to their God.
Makium-uman dagiti tattaok kadagiti didiosenda a kayo, ket agipadpadto kadakuada dagiti sarukodda. Ta inyaw-awan ida ti espiritu ti kinaderrep, ket pinanawandak a Diosda.
13 They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains and burn incense on the hills, under oaks, poplars and terebinths, because the shade is good. So your daughters commit sexual immorality, and your daughters-in-law commit adultery.
Agidatdatonda kadagiti tapaw dagiti bantay ken agpupuorda iti insenso iti tapaw dagiti turod, iti sirok dagiti kayo a lugo, alamo, ken terebinto gapu ta nasayaat ti linongda. Isu a nagbalangkantis dagiti annakyo a babbai, ken nakikamalala dagiti manugangyo a babbai.
14 I will not punish your daughters when they choose to commit sexual immorality, nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery. For the men also give themselves to the prostitutes, and they offer sacrifices so they can commit immoral acts with sacred prostitutes. So this people who does not understand will be thrown down.
Saankonto a dusaen dagiti annakyo a babbai inton pilienda ti pannakikamalala, wenno dagiti manugangyo a babbai inton makikamalalada. Gapu ta ipaay met dagiti lallaki dagiti bagida kadagiti balangkantis, ken agidatagda met kadagiti daton tapno makaaramidda kadagiti dakes nga aramid a kadua dagiti kulto a balangkantis. Isu a madadaelto dagitoy a tattao a saan a makaaw-awat.
15 Though you, Israel, have committed adultery, may Judah not become guilty. Do not go to Gilgal, you people; do not go up to Beth Aven, and do not swear, saying, “As Yahweh lives.”
Uray no nakikammalalaka, O Israel, saan koma nga agbasol ti Juda. Saankayo a mapan idiay Gilgal, dakayo a tattao; saankayo a sumang-at idiay Bethaven. Ket saankayo nga agikari, “Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon.”
16 For Israel has behaved stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer. How can Yahweh bring them to pasture like lambs in a meadow?
Gapu ta nagtignay a sisusukir ti Israel, kas iti maysa a nasukir a bumalasang a baka. Kasano ngarud ida a maiturong ni Yahweh iti pagaraban a kas kadagiti urbon a karnero iti tay-ak?
17 Ephraim united himself with idols; leave him alone.
Nakipagmaymaysa ti Efraim kadagiti didiosen; baybay-am isuna.
18 Even when their strong drink is gone, they continue to commit adultery; her rulers dearly love their shame.
Uray no naibusen dagiti naingel a mainumda, itultuloyda latta ti makikamkamalala; ay-ayaten met dagiti pangulona dagiti pakaibabainanda.
19 The wind will wrap her up in its wings; and they will be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
Balkutento isuna ti angin kadagiti payyakna; ket mababaindanto gapu kadagiti datdatonda.
